Hopefully, weather-wise, we have peaked…… July has been a little too hot thank you very much…… especially when working in the kitchen and behind the bar………… Richard has brought us a giant wind fan for the bar and although fabulous to stand in front of, we did have a few teething problems when we walked past as food was blown off of the plates as we made our way out of the kitchen to the tables…………….

Welcome to July – it’s almost Christmas………… ok well…….. maybe not almost…………..

Quiz nights have finished until Thursday 10th September and we have also stopped doing the cooking demonstrations and Sunday roast lunches for the time being……………. all will be restored in the autumn – along with some new ideas………….

So this month we still have some places for Rob Sweeney on Saturday 18th July. This is a great night with a fantastic singer – Rob is a versatile and polished performer with a rich, powerful voice – singing everything from sixties pop to the present, show-songs to soul classics and

lots in between. Please contact me here or ring the bar to reserve a table.

The new summer menu will be launched in the next week or so – just waiting on the final decisions to be made before publishing it.

So, enjoy the heat; soak up those rays (don’t get burnt!) and then come and see us to soak up some fun!

Welcome to June! The weather is warming up nicely and the visitors are starting to arrive.

There are 4 more quiz nights with Thursday June 25th being the last before it takes a summer break – but do not worry it will be back mid September.

Saturday June 13th sees JJ Jones back with his Neil Diamond tribute. This is a fabulous night and we still have a few places left, so please contact me if you would like to reserve a table.

We have changed our opening hours slightly for the summer period – we are open 7 days a week from 1.30pm every day except Saturdays which has a start time of 5pm.

A few changes to the menu will be taking place in the next couple of weeks and I will email the new one out to everyone once the final tweaks have been incorporated…………….. Sue (our new chef) is regularly creating some home-made pasties which are proving so popular that they are going into the main menu rather than staying on the “Specials Board”. We have some customers eating one at the bar and then taking a couple home to eat later or freeze……

Looking further ahead we are taking bookings for Rob Sweeney on Saturday 18th July. Rob will be singing everything from sixties pop to the present, show songs to soul classics and lots in between. This evening will be a tribute to the music and overall style of Michael Bublé.
